Savannah Users, This is an FYI of two system upgrades today. The SQL database was upgraded today from an older MySQL database server to a newer MariaDB database server.
That went very well such that we decided not to stop there. We also upgraded the Savannah web UI frontend server to the latest release of Triquel 10. And then came in a report that git push failed due to permission problems! Just when I had thought things had gone so well. I didn't notice because my test for it was flawed. The problem was that the back end storage server had been reconfigured for the new SQL DB address but the running rpc.mountd was still hanging onto the previous address. Restarting it solved this problem. The goal was to make these ugprades as invisible of an upgrade as possible to the users of the services. I apologize for any inconvenience. If you experience any continuing problems please let us know! Bob
